Bremen: Caught in Stone.
Welcome to fear, and friendliness. The lions in front of the Dom in Bremen are a masterwork of art and representation, even if the tale they appear to tell is not quite Bible-true and they, carved many hundreds of years ago, do not quite look like the lions we see on the Discovery Channel, or the start of old films in the cinema.

Street Life – Bremen, June 2024
It is mid-afternoon. The sun has travelled across much of the sky and is now illuminating the arches, the colonnade in front of the Town Hall in Bremen. Tourists cross the cobble-stoned space between the houses of politics, of business and commerce, swinging their arms up to point at the majesty of the Bremen Dom, dodging the red and white trams, snapping photographs on their mobile devices, or posing while others capture their image in front of the grimy facades.
